This is so cool, and even cooler that it is right here in NC! I know the Miata market is crowded, but if there is anything LRR makes for the NB that is not available elsewhere, please let us know. There are plenty of us that commute in stripped down Miatas with 4 point harnesses that would love to be able to buy parts with real pedigree, not marketing babble. It seems so much work is done to make specific racing parts, but perhaps a lot of the knowledge gets lost trying to make it work financially. That's a shame. I think there are a lot of us that want to take our street cars to the level that LRR provides, but at the end of the day each one of us is a one man band.

Very interesting shop tour. Love the cars and watching the miatas race is a blast! One question. Why do you remove the seam sealer when you're building the race version?

How do you dispose of the parts taken off the cars?

Surprised that they don't try to bump the power at all. (I know they swap the exhaust but still seems minimal)

I always thought the Miata race cars were factory built by Mazda.
